Yes, please.

Thanks

You will also need to install all the apps that the antiXcc uses for all the options to work.

I didn't succed in editing with nano...

I don't understand. Is it necessary ?

The base version comes with only a few apps by default.
The antiX control centre in the full version has been configured to use lots of apps that are not included in antiX-base. To start with you will need to install zenity and gtkdialog just for the antiXcc to work.

You mean the sudoers file?
It's easy, move the cursor with the keyboard arrows, press 'enter' to create a new line, type the line (delete and backspace works too) and press ctrl+o to save (it will ask for a confirmation, press 'enter' to confirm). Then press ctrl+x to exit (the commands are at the bottom of the screen).

The '^' sign means 'ctrl', so '^O' means 'ctrl+o'.

This way you'll have Debian Lenny's repos which although doesn't have the latest software versions will give you much fewer 'headaches'.

Hello

Can you telle me what should I have select in /etc/sources.list in 8.2 please.

I think my problems in 8.2 came from it...

Thanks

antiX 8 was released at the same time as Debian current stable release, Lenny (actually you can leave 'stable' in the repos but 'lenny' is ok too) so it's natural for it to have the 'stable' repos as its sources.list.. That was in february.
antiX 8.2 was released in july with applications from Debian testing so if you comment the lines with 'testing' in its sources.list and keep only the lines with 'stable' then maybe you won't have updates for a long time and the applications that you install will be from the stable repos (earlier versions).
I've never tried that and don't know if some application would complain that what's already installed in antiX is too new but I imagine that it's possible that if you make the changes in antiX 8.2 to enable only 'stable' repos you would have fewer issues when updating and upgrading.

I don't have rox, I have mc but I don't know how to use it.

I use Thunar. In "properties", I have one box "authorize to execute". I checked it.

The icon was successfully installed.

But in spite of visudo, the deconnection still offers only a logout from the user, not the shutdown.

Visudo modified "/etc/sudoers.temp"

Should I modify "/etc/sudoers" too ?

Thanks

Yes, you should edit /etc/sudoers using visudo

john

For the sudoers editing, after you put that new line you press ctrl+o and then 'enter' to confirm.

If you edit ~/.icewm/preferences like this (as I said in the other post):

Code: Select all

.
.
#  Command to shutdown the system
ShutdownCommand="sudo halt"

#  Command to reboot the system
RebootCommand="sudo reboot"
.
.

then you should have the reboot and shutdown options in Icewm menu.

No, I don't have it.

There is only "confirm deconnection" (ie logout)

(Déconnexion => confirmer la déconnexion (valider/annuler) )

(in visudo I suppressed this line (comment) :

##onthego ALL=/usr/sbin/mesm

which not was in your example)

Did you restart icewm?

Do you have /sbin/reboot and /sbin/halt ?

I don't know why they didn't show up. Try pressing ctrl+alt+del and see if the 'reboot' and the 'shutdown' options appear.

Otherwise maybe anti has something to say.

It's OK with ctrl alt del !!

Thanks !
